Default RE: Capiche 50

Hi Guys,

Well I maiden`d my capiche this weekend! What a plane!

I did my first ever elevator landing on my second flight! Just felt so confident when it was in the elevator, so let it come all the way down! Cant believe no-one was there to see it!

A quick question to you lot though.

The plane doesnt seem to want to harrier, As i said before the elevator is nice and smooth, no wing rock and very stable. As soon as i start to add power the wing starts to rock, and eventually will fall away to one side.

Now dont get me wrong I am by no means an expert at this 3d stuff so it may be my flying. So i was wondering if you guys had any tips? I have a good 50 degrees on the elevator, and the CG is at about 130

I have seen the "Harrier around me" video on flycapiche.co.uk so know its possible! and damn they make it look easy! so its either me or the plane.

On a side note, It was quite windy, Could the strong wind have been un-stalling the wing, causing the rock?

Thanks in advance.

And thanks for a great aeroplane, My first kit - and something i am very proud off.
